I feel so old and SO naive

Expensive
a: commanding a high price and especially one that is not based on intrinsic worth or is beyond a prospective buyer's means

Intrinsic
a: belonging to a thing by its very nature

Worth
a: good or important enough to justify

So based on definition alone, in Jive's perspective owning a car is "Super Expensive" in that for his particular situation the car's INTRINSIC WORTH does not justify the cost. In Jive's particular situation it is cheaper to own and ride a bicicle than to own and drive a car therefore in Jive's particular situation a car is in fact SUPER EXPENSIVE and as he only mentioned expense as one of the 4 reasons for him and him alone not owning a car (other reasons being "for health reasons...philosophical reasons" and as he mentioned "envioronmental") I feel Jive is completely justified in telling you to fuck right off for insinuating he was coloring the facts a bit with his comment and that his reason was "pretty much an "environmental" statement".

Jive don't listen to anything Bill says today he obviously decided to harness his complete "Miss Crabtree" persona (as George likes to call it)

Bill lighten up.

Nice use of the dictionary but it's all irrelevant because his initial statement WAS NOT qualified with "his particular situation." This is where the problem was but he's since clarified/modified his initial statement so at this point, why are you even putting your two cent in? So I guess using your logic, I'm completely justified in telling you to fuck right off so feel free to do so anytime you want.

No Bill the question was asked directly to him. He was asked "Do you travel by donkey." and then question by the group farther based on the initial question be asked of 1 specific persoie. JiveTurkey one could logically deduce that when JiveTurkey answerred with his reasons for his choice that the reasons were his own and simply for his particular situation. You, Bill chose to make an argument where none and none should exist and you chose to call out a member on something that appears to me was simply an excuse to call someone out. Say what you will but that is my opinion. I chose to interact now because I feel it is a crock of shit that you felt the need to brow beat a decent member of this board into saying what you wanted them to say just for the hell of it. Your bullshit argument as certainly proven nothing to the rest of the community other than how nitpicky you will be with everyone's statements. It's is the job of a self moderated community to make sure that asshats don't stick around long and it is also the job of a self moderated community to make sure long standing members realize when they themselves are being asshats. Bill you are behaving like an asshat in this thread. I am asking you as someone that has spoken with you and supported you often to knock it off. You make your own choice with it Bill.

I'm not "brow beating" jiveturkey so you "knock it off." Great, you have your opinion and I have mine, good for you and good for me. I think you're being an "asshat" in this thread so there, I have my opinion and you have yours.

Since you're on "asshat" patrol now Nate, why not go tell that clovecigar guy he's an asshat too instead of continuing your personal crusade here with me long after jiveturkey and I resolved the issue days ago.
